  var NFC_STATE_NOTIFY = "nfcStateChange";
  
  var recvNfcStateNotifyFunc = result => {
      console.info("nfc state receive state: " + result);
  }
  
  // Subscribe to the NFC state changes.
  nfcController.on(NFC_STATE_NOTIFY, recvNfcStateNotifyFunc);
  
  // Unsubscribe from the NFC state changes.
  nfcController.off(NFC_STATE_NOTIFY, recvNfcStateNotifyFunc);
  ```
